The next day, Iris Long and her team woke up early to prepare for another busy day. They all looked refreshed after resting yesterday.
Bright sunlight streamed from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows through the living area. Fluffy, white clouds floated in the blue sky.
If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that such a frightening storm had passed.
The devastating storm had quickly passed, wreaking havoc in the capital and its surrounding areas, like a petulant child throwing a tantrum and calming down after being offered candy. The city and towns had been fine before yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, almost everything got damaged. Those with sturdier infrastructure were alright, but those with less engineering integrity suffered severe repercussions.
Now, everyone was picking up all the pieces and doing their best to rebuild what was left.
Life had to go on.
Business resumed as usual.
